How to Create the Perfect Resume:
Read through our guide to writing the perfect resume that will stand out to employers.
Write a structured and job-specific resume.
Edit your resume for each application.
The skills and experiences that you highlight on your resume should reflect what is required for the role you are applying to. By sending a broad resume for every role, you may be failing to show how qualified you are.
Display your contact information.
Be sure to display your phone number and email address near the top of your resume so that employers can find that information easily.
Use positive verbs.
When describing your experience, use strong verbs to make your sentences more impactful. For example, use words like "established," "initiated," or "coordinated."
Keep your layout simple.
Avoid complex fonts and using multiple colors. This comes off as unprofessional and can be difficult to read.
Edit your paragraphs.
Hiring managers read through hundreds of applications, so if your resume has long paragraphs, they are unlikely to read it fully. Keep your paragraphs concise.
